No prior treatment for DLBCL

Performance status: ECOG 0-2.
Age ≥ 18 years
Cardiac ejection fraction ≥ 45% as measured by MUGA or 2D ECHO without clinically significant abnormalities
Adequate hematological function: hemoglobin ≥ 9.0 g/dL absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥ 1,500/μL and platelet count ≥ 75,000/μL, unless abnormalities are due to bone marrow involvement by lymphoma
Life expectancy \>= 6 months
A negative serum or urine pregnancy test prior to treatment must be available both for pre menopausal women and for women who are \< 1 years after the onset of menopause.
Female patients of child bearing potential must use an effective method of birth control (i.e. hormonal contraceptive, intrauterine device,diaphragm with spermicide, condom with spermicide or abstinence) during treatment period and 1 month thereafter; Males must use an effective method of birth control during treatment period and 3 months thereafter.
